Did Ronnie "Meatball" DeSantis follow your "expert" strategy?
If so, what happened?

Question for the self proclaimed campaign strategy experts on how Trump is doing it wrong.
He has an absolute lock on ~40% of his "base". That is great. However, he needs to get some of the soft middle to come his way to win. Basically nobody in the 40% is changing their vote, so he should develop the POLITICAL SKILL of appealing to those in the middle. And he appears to be terrible at that.
He's, again, losing to a candidate that isn't even hardly out there. At what point do any of you look in the mirror?

I support his stance on the largest issues and I’m not on his campaign advisory team.

I was about to type exactly that. He can’t run off his core voter, but he’s alienating those outside of his core. His core probably won’t be enough.

And the Kamala team seems to be willing to do things that it takes to win - such as throwing a litany of inane populist programs out there...basically, pandering. We all know price gouging isn't a real thing in Economics. She probably even knows that. But she also appears to know that most people DON'T know that and so therefore it's smart to talk about what you're going to do to stop it.

It's weird to me now that we're complaining Trump isn't showman enough. He needs to get the stick out if his arse and start doing the same shite she is.

Did you "critique" meatball also or is that different?

Still waiting on an explanation of why TopGuv won Florida by 20% and Trump is only up on Kamala by like 4%?

I voted for Trump in 2020, have been promoting his victory in 2024 and recently attended a private fundraising event (just after Biden pulled out) for a republican senatorial candidate in a highly relevant battleground state. Everyone there was massively pro Trump, including the insiders and machers, and all saying the same thing - Kamala absolutely can win if Trump doesn't get his head out of his arse. He already squandered the assassination bump and seems literally incapable of appealing to anyone other than his (admittedly very substantial) base. Some of these people have direct communication with him on a weekly (or more frequent) basis.
I want him to win - unlike you who evidently just wants to suck him off and hope for the best. How excited are you to be a man for sucking Trump's dick?

Still waiting on you to explain how one correlates to the other.

When it comes to winning over moderate voters apparently not
I was told by Cobra Tate and the rest of this board that Trump turned Florida red and Ron had nothing to do with it

Trump acts like normal Trump - “muh he needs to stick to policy”
Trump talks policy- “muh he’s so boring I can’t even listen to him”

If Trump wins, everyone will know that the opinion that he was doing it wrong was mistaken.
If he loses, everyone will know that they were right.
We'll know in less than three months.

Did you listen to the Musk interview? The man said exactly what he did during his presidency and how those decisions were effective.

Anybody swanky enough to be talking to trump every week, and going to a senators in-crowd cocksucker party, probably can’t fathom what the average Joe is voting for or against.
Congrats on the shrimp cocktail though.

I remember them saying the exact same thing when Biden was the supposed candidate
Trump shouldnt even break a sweat until after the convention and he sees who he will actually be running against. Switch me once, same on you. Switch me twice, scorch the earth
